It's been 7 weeks since my Ultherapy treatment and 6 weeks since my Halo laser treatment. Sorry it took a while to post! I've been working so much and I also have adult acne and every time I found time to take a photo I wasn't happy with my blemishes. Anyway, today's a pretty good day, acne-wise, so I made time for pics. Regarding my 2 treatments last month: I am so incredibly happy with the results. When I wake up in the morning and look in the mirror, I am surprised by how I look every day (in a good way, haha!). Any subtle changes, positive or negative, are significant when it comes to our own faces, and I am loving the subtle changes both treatments provided. This is what I notice: less sagging around my jowls, tightening in the cheek area, tightening of the brow, lifting of the eyelid skin, better overall texture, smaller pores, less discoloration, and a nice glow! I'm a makeup junkie but for the first time in years I'm using just a bit of mineral makeup instead of heavy foundation because I don't feel the need to cover up as much as pre-treatment. I know my results are subtle but I believe that is due to the fact that I've taken such good care of my skin for the past 25 years (sunblock every single day, rain or shine, inside or out, and daily Retin-A for the last 15 or so years). Both procedures lead to continued improvement for months, so the best is yet to come! I've been getting fillers for over 15 years and I'm due for them now, especially since the Ultherapy can degrade fillers, but I've blown my beauty budget for the year so that will have to wait until 2017! :-) I hope my reviews help some of you! Thank you for all your kindness and support!

I've had acne for the past 33 years but I've always kept it somewhat under control with medication. I didn't have any scarring with pitting, but I did have more discolorations (probably where I had picked at a blemish even though I try hard to leave them alone!) before treatment. My face just seems brighter and more even-toned. Good luck! :-)

It's been one week since I had the procedure done and I'm very happy with the results so far! I'm wearing much less makeup and concealer than I was before treatment. I'm looking forward to seeing how it is in the next few months! :-)

Interested to see how you like it and will be following. I too am 45, with pretty good skin. Nervous that it's overkill for my skin, which is a little sensitive. I really want some tightening effects more than anything, the cheeks are starting to drop a little, giving me lines on the sides of my mouth. My plan is to do it in October, I have a few trips planned. And based on your review, I'll give myself a few days before having to go to work. Keep us posted on your progress, looks great so far.

Thank you! I also did Ultherapy a week or so before the Halo laser, so I'm seeing tightening effects from both. My plastic surgeon told me this combo would give me "a lot of miles!" So far I'm so happy! Good luck!

I'm still red and there are still lots of mends around my jawline and hairline, but I'm seeing clear skin emerging! What a feeling! It makes the last few days so worth it! So it was really just 3 days after the procedure that it was difficult to cover what was going on with my face. Today it sort of looks like I have a sunburn; no biggie! :-) I'll be back at work tomorrow and I'll post a photo 1 week post-procedure, 1 month, and 3 month. So far, I'm thrilled and loving the results! VERY worth the money!
